You are correct, and this is what I normally would look at. But in this case it must be some sort of incompatibility. Reason I am saying that is due to the path being correct and all files are where they should be. Must be something else going on.

1. Install XAMPP on a supported system.
2. Copy the XAMPP folder to the Windows 2008 Core install.
3. Run the Setup file.

This seems to function as far as I can tell. The http://127.0.0.1 reports that the services are not running but things are working very well. This will be the ULTIMATE setup IMHO as I can insert a done XAMPP install into a Windows 2008 Core image so it's already there at the time of install.
